SEOUL, April 20 (Yonhap) -- The U.S. Air Force dispatched a nuclear sniffer aircraft Thursday to the east of the Korean Peninsula amid the possibility of North Korea's imminent nuclear test, a government source said. "The WC-135 Constant Phoenix, a special-purpose U.S. plane, made an emergency sortie today over the East Sea," the source said, requesting anonymity.

I used to work on that jet. I would say that China will probably rain in NK to keep us out.

I don't have a problem with China taking over NK.
Hell, all they'll do is sell it to Walmart |

I think this is very likely. But more in the form of a new puppet government. The Chinese don't want all the problems within NK to be their problems. Better if they can control who does have to deal with it. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

One thing is for certain, if China does step into NK bidness, and trade starts to flow into NK to feed those people you probably won't see a cat past Hawaii for decades. Might not be a bad time for Samsung to open a few cat farms in SK. Talking bout profit'n Meow. View Quote |

Why would they put bombers on alert to bomb the little turd when all they have to do is shut off the oil spigot, cut off the food freebies, and maybe have the guy whacked? Did you ever think the bombers are on alert to support him? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

So the Norks are going to nuke themselves?
ZFG. Why? Because I'm in the US, and they haven't shown anything close to the capability of being able to hit us. We're being pulled in to this by warmongers and paper tigers. |

View Quote We're talking about a country that has nukes and is willing to use them on SK, Japan, USA etc. Just because they don't have an ICBM to launch a nuke at the US mainland doesn't mean they can't hit Seoul or Tokyo tomorrow. Let them keep testing unimpeded and they will have their ICBM. You don't believe little Kim would use a nuke in an act of desperation? Are you willing to trust that fat fuck and his ally Assad with that kind of weapon? Yeah... paper tigers... |

There is 0 chance that plane flew over DPRK,none. They can detect anomalies in the atmosphere at a considerable range to begin with but no way on Trump's green earth would something like http://www.willyvictor.com/PhotoGallery/4Jan05.BMP be risked with such a valuable asset,let alone actually flying over.

What incentive does the fat one have to randomly start a nuclear war? What would the advantage to him be, when he can just keep on being little league prick. If he tries to use his nuclear toys, his whole country winds up glowing in the dark and he's dead. He's a major league asshole, but I'm willing to wait for him to start a shooting war. View Quote |

I know we have had a few in the past. How are the bathrooms on board are they the standard fare or unique to the aircraft.? |
